That night, Ji Qing secretly instructed Yang Chen that no matter what happened to him on the second day, he would not delay sending Uncle Liu to Wanjia every day to treat Dong'er's foot disease.

Early the next morning, he went to his mother's place to ask for peace, and afterwards, he slowly informed his mother about Dong'er, this Yang's mother is still haunted by Yang Boqing's private marriage when he was young, and now the younger son is going to re-enact the situation of his brother.

She was angry when she heard this, and scolded: "I said how you have been studying harder than ever before, it turned out that you were using a trick to cover up your and that little vixen's secret collusion." No matter what kind of character the little vixen is, her mother, Mrs. Anxiu, is not a virtuous and virtuous woman, a woman from a Taoist family, just because she quarreled with her husband, she let go of the good housewife and did not do it, abandoned her husband and daughter, became a nun, a woman's family, and there was such a big temperament. A girl born to such a woman, let alone wanting to be an outer room, unrestrained, and at ease, even if she is willing to be a small servant and enter our Yang family to be a concubine and an aunt, serving the housewife, I will not allow her to come in. ”

Ji Qing argued: "Mother, everyone has their own aspirations, this is not a good judgment, and it is not a day or two for Master An to become a nun, but decades of fasting and reciting Buddha and green lantern ancient scrolls, it can be seen that it is not a moment of anger." What's more, children are not the same as their parents, if they are, then my brother and I will not have the same temperament. Mother, it's not that the son says frustrated words, Fengyi's sister is ambitious, and she always thinks that one day her husband and wife will be honored and given a wife, she is so sharp and strong, and a person like me who has no ambitions will inevitably be a couple of resentful couples. ”

Mother Yang advised: "Child, I'm afraid that you have let that little fox spirit lose his mind." Why don't you think about it, our Yang family's glory and wealth in the past few decades, your grandfather and your uncle are indispensable, although your Feng sister has repeatedly complained that you don't seek progress, but she has never disliked you, you are a big man's family, how can you never forget a word or two of a girl's complaints? You have to be generous. ”

"Mother, I'm not so small that I can't tolerate a few complaints from my cousin, I just don't want to delay Sister Fengyi. In fact, if I had been born in an ordinary family, with my mediocre talent, I am afraid that I would only be able to sell paintings for a living. I think I'm really not worthy of Sister Fengyi, Sister Fengyi must be embarrassed to dissolve the marriage contract with me because of her daughter's body, and I will do what she is embarrassed to do. ”

"No, even if you don't want to marry Feng Yi, then you can't marry that Wan Dong'er, what kind of family is she, what kind of family are we, don't be too far behind."

Yang Jiqing said angrily: "The eldest sister-in-law is already a widow in front of her mother, and my mother still wants her little daughter-in-law to come to our house to accompany my sister-in-law to stay alive and widowed?" Mothers should not forget the lessons of the past. ”

Mother Yang sneered: "Listening to what you mean, do you want to completely copy what your brother did back then?" ”

"Why not? Isn't my brother already attaining the right fruit? ”

Mother Yang was almost speechless, and she changed her tone to persuade: "Silly boy, do you think the outer room is so easy to accept?" When your brother married the Xie family outside, your sister-in-law's family almost never turned against my family, if it weren't for your brother's promising future, their Ma family would not have let us stop. You have to think about your family, not just yourself. ”

"But mother, I really don't like Sister Fengyi, I haven't liked her for a day."

"Child, if you just covet that girl's beauty, I can also find you a beautiful girl to make a room, and serve you first, but you don't have to think about this girl from the family. Tonight I will pick someone to wait in your room, and from tomorrow onwards, you will not be allowed to go anywhere, only stay at home and study your homework. ”

"Mother, I don't want any roommates, I only have Wan Dong'er alone in my heart, when I think of her, I feel like I have experienced a long winter, and suddenly find that spring is quietly coming, it is the kind of indescribable joy, mother, for the sake of the eldest sister-in-law, don't be so stubborn, okay?"

"Her name is Dong'er, but you compare her to spring, it's really a donkey's lips and a horse's mouth, I think it's just two young boys and girls who are pregnant with spring, you step down, and when you are admitted to the fame, if you still remember her in your heart, come and mention this matter to me again, if you are towards Qin Duchu, forget her in a few days, then it would be better." I'm waiting for your gold list to speak. ”

After that, Mother Yang got up, supported by the maid, and went back to the inner room, leaving Ji Qing to kneel in the front hall alone in despair.

It was night, and it was drizzling in the capital, sneaking into the night with the wind, moisturizing things silently. Dong'er finished dinner, read a book for a while, and laughed with Xiaohe for a while, when he was about to rest, Lao Zhou knocked on the door outside, Xiaohe went over to ask his father what was the matter, Lao Zhou took a letter and said: "This is the little brother Yang Chen, who brought the old doctor over to the young lady's feet during the day, and said that the young lady must read it quickly." ”

Dong'er opened the letter and saw that it read: "Street pavilion, there is something important to discuss with the girl, I have been waiting here, I hope the girl will go to the meeting." ”

After reading the letter, Dong'er's face became solemn, and Xiaohe hurriedly asked: "Miss, what is written in this letter, Yang Chen looked a little worried when he sent Uncle Liu over during the day, I asked him why Yang Gongzi didn't come, and he refused to say." ”

Dong'er refused to say anything, she asked Xiaohe to hurry up and prepare rain gear, and the two of them simply cleaned up and went out.

Came to the pavilion in the middle of the street not far from home, Ji Qing was already waiting here, the sky was gloomy, the drizzle was sloppy, the streets were empty, and there was not a single pedestrian coming and going, Xiaohe and Yang Chen were waiting for their own masters not far from the pavilion, Dong'er looked at Ji Qing's figure, hesitated slightly, and finally walked towards him.

Although full of shame, Yang Jiqing still told Dong'er about discussing the marriage between the two with his mother today, he thought that Dong'er would be angry when he heard the word outer room, and he would also be disappointed because the two could not communicate before the big exam, but after listening to his story, Dong'er's expression became brighter, her eyes were crooked, the corners of her mouth were curled, and she smiled sweetly, and persuaded him to say: "Childe is too modest, what you did today is a surprise to me, such a surprise is not only for you, but also for my father." ”

Ji Qing was surprised: "Aren't you really sad?" I haven't been able to get a clear answer for you today. Mother either vetoed or procrastinated, so I can't tell you if it's okay or not. ”

Dong'er remembered her father's words that comforted her, her smile was mixed with a little grievance and sadness, and she tried her best to comfort Yang Jiqing with confidence: "Young Master Yang, I didn't expect you to give me an answer, let alone imagine that you would fight for me, so whether it is conclusive or not, I am still very pleased." ”

Yang Jiqing took the girl's hand, held it in the palm of her hand, and asked: "Dong'er, please don't be discouraged first, although I may not be able to come to visit you frequently for a period of time in the future, but you must know that I am still trying my best to fight for the two of us, you cooperate with Uncle Liu's treatment, treat the foot disease first, and I will take care of the other things." ”

"If it's too difficult, Childe doesn't have to force himself, I know your hardships, as well as the hardships of Lord Lingtang, things in this world never come with the wishes of one person or two. We always have to be considerate of the thoughts of our elders. ”

After Dong'er said this, her heart suddenly felt a very special pain, like an awl piercing it, so painful that she wanted to stretch out a hand to rub it and relieve its pain.

Why is the heart so well-behaved, but still let it bear such pain?

Ji Qing only thought that Dong'er was comforting him with these words, and didn't think so: "Dong'er, don't be discouraged, everything will be fine, after all, I didn't make any deviant and whimsical requests, Zuo is just one time and not twice, and two times and three times. ”

Dong'er smiled sadly and didn't say a word. Compared with Ji Qing, she has witnessed the cold state of the world, for more than a year, the matchmaker who came to the door to propose marriage could not be counted on two hands, and the man's family behind them coveted Dong'er's physical appearance on the one hand, and talked about Dong'er's foot disease and the family affairs of the Wan family, either to lower the dowry or to increase the dowry requirements, all kinds of fingers, all kinds of calculations.

Wan Kezhou's father and daughter were already very self-sufficient, but seeing these people's careful calculations and faces, they made their hearts chill when they got married.

When Yang Jiqing appeared in front of their family and diligently searched for doctors and medicines for them, Dong'er thought that she had a daydream, and she hoped that this daydream would continue to be done, without waking up and without an ending........

"Young Master Yang-----" she whispered to the dream-like and unsophisticated young man in front of her.

"Don't call me Childe, call me by my name." Yang Jiqing's voice was a little hoarse, he took another step forward, the distance between the two was so close, Dong'er's forehead almost touched his chin.

Dong'er hesitated for a moment, and finally called out his name: "Ji Qing----, I'm waiting for you." ”

The night rain seemed to be getting tighter and tighter, Ji Qing hugged Dong'er into his arms, and they all hoped that time would stop, stop, the rain would fall forever, go down, there is only one pavilion in the world, only one street.
